It’s all about the right place, the right time, and the right people. Whereas in the more traditional, conservative parts, LGBTQ people are embraced with open arms. Well then honey, go out and vote for better politicians!Īll jokes aside, we know that no state is perfect – and that even in the most liberal, left-wing parts of the USA, queer people can still face discrimination or worse. With that in mind, we've rounded up the 10 most gay-friendly states, based on the LGBTQ population, local acceptance rates, prominence of their gay scene, and how progressive their laws are. Oh, and if you live in the USA and feel your state is robbed of a place on this list. But how is each state when it comes to LGBTQ people? Mixed, to say the least.

No matter where we travel to in the USA, we experience nothing but warm welcomes. Or was it ‘home of the brave'? They both mean the same thing as far as we’re concerned!
